Not directly related to “home staking bandwidth requirements”, but at ProbeLab we have done some research on bandwidth requirements recently - see:
- Ethereum Node Message Propagation Bandwidth Consumption
- Number Duplicate Messages in Ethereum’s Gossipsub Network
As for some of our future plans:
- we’ve adapted our tool, Hermes (GitHub - probe-lab/hermes: A Gossipsub listener and tracer.) to support
IDONTWANTmessages and we’ll repeat the studies to see how much bandwidth is actually saved, - we also plan to do some active measurements on the available upload bandwidth of nodes and come up with a distribution. No concrete plans or details yet, but if we succeed, we’ll be able to have a good picture of what bandwidth availability looks like today and hopefully project to the future.
